European Restaurants near Vila Franca Do Campo, PT

“An absolute tourist spot. But very tasty food and it's a wonderful place to sit at the top. Basically good service. One caveat: we ordered a port wine without looking at the menu again. The port wine then appeared on the bill at €35 for 0.1 l. Luckily we had a glass for me ;-). And it wasn't even on the menu. He was already tasty. But a note about the price would have been very appropriate.“

“We loved this restaurant so much we came back for dinner the next night! The views of the islet and the ocean are amazing if you sit outside. Food is delicious. The limpets are especially good. Amazing service. We had the same server both nights and she even remembered our little ones’ allergies.

They had a high chair for our baby and big umbrellas for shade.

Kid-friendliness: High chair available“

“Breathtaking 180° view of the port, great choice of fish of the day, but a team overwhelmed by its success: random waiting which can be interminable (1 hour), while half of the terrace was empty... incomprehensible. Conflicts between staff, very nice to customers. Many customers have given up. But excellent grilled fish, hearty and ultra fresh. Very simple accompaniments.

Wheelchair accessibility: Numerous steps at the entrance, WC not accessible. I advise against.“

“(Translated by Google) Super octopus, perfect, so soft I haven't eaten yet. I recommend it for those who like octopus. Been there twice and it was great.(Original)Super ośmiornica , idealna , tak miękkiej jeszcze nie jadlem. Polecam dla tych co lubią ośmiornice. Byłem tam dwa razy i było super.“

“The best ribeye steak I tried in the whole island and one of ny favourites ever! The service speaks english perfectly and were so professional. We meat was well cooked in the grill and very tasty! Its true the chicken salad was just a 5/10. I really recommend to go there if you like meat!“

“Although from the outside it is a place that does not attract your attention and you would not enter, inside there is great quality in relation to the food.
Without a doubt, the grelhadas limpets are a must and the fish are large portions and of great quality.

One of the best places to eat in Sao Miguel.“

“We came from Spain and it is the only restaurant we have returned to several times to eat. Delicious food and very well priced. Excellent service. Without a doubt, a highly recommended restaurant to come to at any time!

Parking: It even has private parking“

“The best meal that I had on Sao Miguel. Everything tasted gourmet but the prices were so Reasonable. The restaurant is run by a lovely & personable husband and wife team that you will be personally greeted by. Our table f 4 had soup, entree, dessert & plenty of wine all for under 100 Euros. Highly recommend ad can’t wait to go back. So many other things on the menu I want to try. Very quaint so I recommend making reservations.“

“Visiting the island and after a long day of exploring, stopped at the grocery store but were too tired to cook. We lucked out and chose to go to Boteco do Miguel. The owner was very friendly and spoke English very well. The pizza was very good, certainly the best we have had for years. We were going to take it to go, but decided to eat in, which was a good decision. It was excellent fresh from the oven. We will make it a priority to go back before we leave to go home. The free parking lot across the street (enter from the back) made it super easy to stop and eat.

Parking: Free parking lot right across the street in a lot you enter off a side street.“

“Typical portuguese bar with no pretensions. You can go there as a tourist and you will be treated as one more from the villeage.
They have the typical options, "Sande", "Chiken wings" (amazing), Burguers, Chips ...
For sure you will not eat as in a 5 stars hotel, but they don't try, totally recommended if you end in Ribeira quente and you want something fast and tasty.“

“Buffet of 100% homemade food and desserts.Two delicious broths first. 4 seconds, fried peas with sweet potatoes, honeyed roast beef, chops or lagareiro, baked tuna.It must be admitted that they have a very good cook because the tuna and meat were very, very juicy.Normal but delicious desserts.I will be back.€14, drinks included.“

“I'm just thrilled. Totally nice owner couple who take care of all guests' needs. Always up for a joke, after several visits we can vouch for good food. Even things that weren't on the menu were fulfilled...
OBRIGAD... Oh, from Helmut and family ?“

“A place where local people go, which we really liked. We made snails that reminded us of times gone by when it was a very common dish in our house. It's a simple, unpretentious place and you feel at home, and the food is very good. The service was very correct and friendly, the whole a wonderful experience.“

“This restaurant is located in one of the most beautiful and authentic areas in São Miguel - Nordeste. It's specifically in the village of Salga and the view is beautiful! In August we can even see the sunset. The owners are very friendly and kind and their specialty is a very tasty traditional Azorean pizza made in a wood-fired oven - just so you know, traditional Azorean pizza has a slightly thicker crust (influenced by pizza from the USA) than traditional Italian romana pizza. This is due to the fact that Azorean history is closely linked to the USA, since many Azoreans emigrated there in the 20th century and many exchanges took place. I totally recommend this place!“

“Chose this restaurant for our first night in the area (always a good test!) and we were not disappointed. Lovely friendly welcome, great setting out on the terrace, perched on a Cliffside and some lovely fresh pink to get the evening off to a start. The fish was delicious and we were all delighted with the dishes and flavours. Definitely worth booking to get a nice table.“

“Maré Cheia was a pleasant surprise. Hidden among the houses of Moinhos, it is a very rustic restaurant but with excellent food. The feeling is that of being invited into the owners' home.
Upon your arrival the owner will show you the fresh fish of the day with the relative prices.
We had an octopus (one of the best I've ever eaten) and a boca negra (fresh). With dessert, coffee and water we spent €44.
Super recommended even if you are not on the road.“

“We have visited this place and I loved it! We ate 2 Bolos filled with cheese and cooked ham and a sweet caramel. Super fresh and tasty bowls and the sweets too. EVERYTHING HOMEMADE!! The atmosphere is very pleasant. They have few tables but when we were there we had seats without waiting. The young girl who attended us was friendly and nice. We took takeaway bowls 5un €4.5 and sweets approx. €1.5! Very good price!! and unbeatable quality! I recommend visiting it without fail!!“

“It's mainly the locals who eat here, and less the tourists. Because you have to know where it is. However, if you love meat, you will find one of the best meat restaurants on the island. It is located on an agricultural facility, so actually right at the source... Most of the meat pieces are 300 grams in size and can be chosen in three different quality levels.
There are also various homemade sauces, for example inspirations with pepper or cheese.
The restaurant is very popular, you can either reserve directly or have yourself added to the list on site.
The portions are quite generous and the matching wines are also on offer. So, when you are in Sao Miguel, you should visit this restaurant if you love meat. (Fine tuna is also available)“

“This fish restaurant is one of the best of my life, the extremely fast service in 10 minutes all my dishes were served and the waiters are adorable and in addition to having eaten very well I had the chance to see dolphins in the sea ​​during my meal. I recommend the mussels, they are delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want to eat well.“

“A perfect place to try the authentic cocido das Furnas made underground with the heat emanating from the caldeiras. The portions are large, so think about sharing among several even if it serves 2. If you want soup, it comes separately, since the stew itself does not have liquid, but rather the typical vegetables and meat that accompany it. In addition, the waiters were very nice and made our food very pleasant.“

“Family dinner with the aim of eating the roasted octopus that my father and uncle loved. But we were too late and there was no more. We opted for snacks and what snacks. Wonderful octopus stew but what I liked most was the fried chicharros. I've never had ones so crispy and tasty! Coming back to repeat these snacks and the roasted octopus.“

“We were in Furnas and we were looking for traditional portuguese food and here they had vegan morcela con ananas (vegan blood sausage with pineapple)! I had made my research on traditional azorean food and I thought it would be impossible to try this dish, and this restaurant was the only place in Sao Miguel and in Terceira, that had it. It was nice, the pineapple was really juicy! And then we had some burgers which were nice but not amazing haha The waiter was REALLY sweet and friendly!“

“Homemade and local food, excellent value for money, meat and fish and very good, and the rice pudding was delicious, we went to eat there for two days, we also found a photo of one of the owners with Djokovic who was there last year . Highly recommended, also with parking right in front of the restaurant and it closes late, at 4:30 p.m., we did not reserve either time and we had a table immediately“

“We had a quick and delicious lunch here with soup, bifanas, and burgers made on the local bolos lêvados. They were much larger than what we had bought previously at the store. The coffee and pastries were also good. The ladies working were welcoming and helped us select items for the kids.“

“It's a hole in the wall, but adorable. Pizza was good, but if you're an American, don't order sausage because it's Vienna sausage. The regional stake was great. It was sauteed with garlic and red pepper. The fries are just like any other fries in this country, thin, crispy, and generally good. The salad was good but not amazing. Everything was very well priced, so you're not breaking the bank. Service was very nice, and attentive, and seemingly multilingual. She spoke different languages different customers. That's what I love about this country, you could be from anywhere, and they still can communicate with you. There is no parking for the restaurant, but there's plenty of parking around it.“

“My husband and I tried this place on our last night in Furnas and it did not disappoint! It truly feels like a fairytale walking into the garden, the whole venue is very cute and charming. We had the shrimp, fried chorizo, olives, and cheese board and all were delicious. I dont recommend dessert here, we had far better at every other restaurant we tried on the island. Otherwise 10/10 recommend trying this place!“

“Ate very well, the fish was excellent and fresh. However, at the time of the bill we noticed that we had been given an unsolicited entrée, which we thought was a gift from the house; the bottle of wine arrived already open, we would have preferred to see it opened at the table. It's a shame because it is a very valid and characteristic place“

“Agua d'Alto beach is great. The restaurant is beautiful, the atmosphere is good, on the seaside it's great. The service is OK, but they are quickly overwhelmed by events as soon as the customer base builds up. Arrive early, say before 6:30 p.m. to get better service.

Parking: You can park on the street, if it is full, there is a parking lot at the top of the hill which can hold a lot of cars. Don't worry if there are a lot of people, they are not necessarily at the restaurant, they are possibly at the beach.“

“If you want to try their geothermally cooked food - you MUST book in advance. As all the reviews have mentioned - the portions are HUGE - one dish can easily serve two people, or even three - no matter how good you think you are at eating! The food is very good quality overall and the premium prices reflect the taste and portions. We visited in early August - so it was very busy at lunch time. Might be a bit quieter away from the holiday season.“

“Manuel Flor restaurant is a must do when in Ribeira Grande. The roasted chicken is a must have, with the hot sauce (not a killler hot but just right). Staff were super friendly, service was quick and they offered great recommendations. Must have the local beer ESPECIAL! Located near the town square its location is central!!“

“Very tasty burgers and crispy fries with a direct sea view. You have to order at the counter inside and the food is then brought to the table.

Vegetarian options: There was also a vegetarian burger. This was also very tasty.“

“Arrived in Ribeira Grande yesterday and quickly found something very good for dinner. It is superbly decorated in the Azores style. The food (fish) was very tasty. It's a fish restaurant, but it doesn't smell like fish at all, which is a very good sign of quality. The house is very clean, the staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The wine recommendation was also very appropriate. And by the way, you pay humane prices for the wine and not five times as much as in Germany.“

“I had a lovely meal here tonight . The restaurant has a vegan menu and a dish or two off the main menu are suitable. Also a proper vegan dessert which has been illusive here up until now. I had the fennel orange and hazlenut salad to start great big plate of mixed lettuce with generous amounts of the other ingredients (might be a main size!) Bean chilli which was nice and came with organic rice and veg although it wasn't at all spicy. There was a gf yam based chocolate dessert, texture was between a mousse and a cake, a bit different and very tasty. The staff were really great helpful and friendly. The food came quickly as did the drinks and the place had a really great ambience and a nice buzz as it was almost full. Would recommend and suggest booking in advance.“

“Mandatory stop at Das Furnas to try the stew. It was delicious and a lot of quantity (I recommend ordering cooked for 1 less person so there is no leftover!). The owners are very friendly. We ate very comfortably after taking a few dips in the boilers.“

“Super-recommended. We took the daily fish assortment, very good quality and large portions. The fish soup is also very tasty.
Very decent prices for the quality of the product. Terrace with sea views is also very pleasant (the sunset looks perfect).
Reservation recommended.“

“Surprisingly great value for money. Good quality food and we have very personal and considerate service. Didn't expect much from the outside but turned out to be quite decent. Not so much 'cozy' in terms of atmosphere but our stomachs and wallets were “

“It was never crowded here in the evenings. We had pre-ordered 1 Cozido when making the reservation, but unfortunately it was no longer available that evening. The next day it worked and was delicious. 1 serving is easily enough for 2 people. Service was ok so far.
When we were there they were redoing the terrace“
